• Make sure the power to the printer and to the computer is
switched off when you connect the printer and computer.
• For optimum output, please use a cable recommended by
Mutoh. If some other cable is to be used, select one by refer-
ring to "Centronics (Bi-directional Parallel Interface: IEEE1284
compatible) Specifications" on page 103.
The printer can use the Centronics interface (IEEE1284 compatible, Nibble,
ECP). Connect to the printer as shown in the following diagram with an inter-
face cable (option) for the connection system you will use. Connect to the host
computer with another interface cable.
• The use of an unnecessarily long cable may affect data trans-
mission. Interface cables should be as short as possible.
• An Ethernet board RJ-ETH13TX (for networking) is available as
an optional extra. Installation is explained "Installation of
options, Network interface board installation" in the separate
Functions Edition of the User Guide.
